My Style: Fall Sweatshirts + Capes

I’ll never forget the first cape I bought. It was over 5 years ago when I first moved to NYC – I found the vintage beauty at Beacon’s Closet in Park Slope where I was living at the time. It was camel colored, wool, to the knees and had gorgeous gold buttons. When I wore it I felt cool, like a real New Yorker – and then I moved to a tiny apt in the East Village and had to purge, and sold it back to Beacon’s Closet. I’ve regretted it ever since. This black cape from Forever21 hardly compares, but it’s my go-to during this fickle weather of early fall. I’ll take cape weather as long as I can have it, don’t get me wrong! My boyfriend asked if I forgot my broom when I put this outfit on, he just doesn’t understand.
